	OK, I have Microbotics Hardframe, Seagate 157N (48meg),
	A2000, 5meg Ram.
 
	I know I have a bad block somewhere on the HD. I begin
	getting Read/Write errors. To get around it I have to delete
	some files out of my tmp directory to recover good disk space.

	Short of getting the Hardframe upgrade that was recently
	announced for $49.00 which would map out the bad blocks,
	is there anything else I could do? Any freeware or shareware
	that would help? Thanks.
